Guest guest Posted August 14, 2000 Report Share Posted August 14, 2000 Kathy, My advice would be to come off of the oils unless you know the exact balance. My 6 year old son starting taking clo and epo and then we started to notice him flinching in his sleep, seizure type movements. I have an eeg scheduled , hoping there isnt any consistent seizures as there may be, but it has stopped since i took him off, I think that if you dont know the proper ratios, it lowers the seizure thresh hold. crystal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 14, 2000 Report Share Posted August 14, 2000 - My son, also 3, has had a similar change. He hasn't been biting or pinching, but he has been pushing other little kids and hitting us with various toys. It's not all of the time, but it's unpredictable. I don't know what's causing it. If you find out, please let us know. Kris aka@... [ ] Sudden Aggression in 3-Year-Old-HELP! My almost 3-year -old son never exhibited any signs of aggression before, but, lately he has gotten into the habit of biting and pinching family members? Has anyone else had similar experiences? Any ideas on what could be causing this and what we can do? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 14, 2000 Report Share Posted August 14, 2000 -are you using anti-virals? Both valtrex and famvir had the same effect on my son. Also, are you givng CLO? Some report similar effects with too much CLO or CLO out of balance with other fatty acids. ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 14, 2000 Report Share Posted August 14, 2000 My son will start having seizures if he has too much CLO. Try first balancing it with EPO (evening primrose) for a few weeks then go back to CLO, that made some differences for me Kathy [ ] Re: Sudden Aggression in 3-Year-Old-HELP! -are you using anti-virals?

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2000 Report Share Posted August 14, 2000 Ann, Yes, we are using CLO. We give him 2 capsules of the Kirkman's CLO every day. Is that too much?

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2000 Report Share Posted August 14, 2000 Kathy, How much CLO and how much evening primrose-i.e., what kind of ratio? Also, should they be given together or at different times of the day? Thanks. Jim Blanco <kblanco@...> wrote: My son will start having seizures if he has too much CLO.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2000 Report Share Posted August 14, 2000 Doesn't CLO increases possibility of seizures in sucepted individuals? It lowers the seizure threshold.

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2000 Report Share Posted August 15, 2000 , It could be a new supplement that you have added. Or it could be the " typical " change that happens with Autism. Some kids as they get older (3-5) do begin to show more signs of aggression. It is my experience that it corresponds to something going on within him. Diet, viral, ears, bowels....it can be a major guessing game. While you hunt try to remember the more you respond to being hit/pinched the more the behavior seems to go up. Generally speaking our wonderful kids are reinforced even by negative attention. If you want to post me privately I will try to help you come up with some strategies while you look for the biomedical cause.

When they experience stress and don't have enough cortisol reserve around they become aggressive and mean. Reducing stress helps, adrenal support (e. g. B5) helps and licorice helps.
